In his study of pleasure, Loquel participated in a tour of the Enterprise-D conducted by CounselorDeanna Troi. Because Iyaarans are born fully grown, he became fascinated by a child named Eric, a citizen aboard the starship. Intrigued by the joy which Humans experience with having children and also with their enjoyment of food, specifically sweets, Loquel invited Eric to have dessert with him.

The studies of Loquel and Byleth were both deemed a success. Voval, however, believed his experiment to be a failure. (TNG: "Liaisons")
